I would like to know that too

Last time we asked around in Thailand, a couple of years ago, all we could get was weed killer, was hoping things might鈥檝e changed. I鈥檒l keep looking. Thais don't seem to be into gardening like we are in the West sadly.

In Thailand people are not measured by how much money they have, but by the size of their garden....not kidding, urban rumor

馃槃thanks Martin, all the more reason to keep it looking good! Perhaps I鈥檒l have to look at importing some weed and feed, theres an obvious gap in the market here馃槃馃憤馃徎

I found this on the web

Maintaining a lawn is a first time for me, I used to have a gardener and now regret I did not pay attention to his work.

If you find one, please let me know

Hiring gardeners is easy Martin, finding someone who鈥檒l actually do a decent job is a nightmare! If you live here all the time it might be easier but as we only get out to our place once a year it鈥檚 been a real problem for us.Our housekeeper and her family take care of the garden for us now, they don鈥檛 claim to be gardeners but they鈥檇 seen the problems we鈥檇 had in the past with so called gardeners, who were actually useless, and keep it tidy for us , which is all we want. Nothing worse than starting your holiday to be greeted by a mess in the garden, you just don鈥檛 need that. Hope you find someone decent, ask a few of your neighbours they might be able to recommend someone.馃憤馃徎

In Bangkok at our house we lived in a 'respectable' moo baan and the garden was maybe 100m2 front and sides.

Fruit trees, grass and plants, we found a list in the house with all important telephone numbers and聽 that included a gardener. 3-5 people at a time and they did, as far as my knowledge goes a decent job. They even showed me how to keep weed away from the tiles on the terrace...

Now we have a garden, multiple fruit trees and fruit plants, many, many flowery plants and a mix of colored bougainvillea against our , low, wall

Around give or take 1,000 m2... but the grass has some (leftover) weed in it, it previously was farmer land, sugarcane.

We loaded up some earth, built a house, parking etc... but still 1,000 m2 of grassland.. I found some stuff in the links I provided, but I have no clue what will help. Surrounded by farmers who all advise me to nuke the lot, I mean really nature unfriendly stuff (which i did use on the soft road to our place)...

You have quite a lot more garden than we have by the sound of it, My wife鈥檚 removed all of the weeds by hand from areas of the lawn where they were. So we鈥檙e going to have a look around for some turf to fill in the patches and see how that goes, thankfully most of the grass on our lawn seems to be quite hardy stuff because a couple of years ago, after having a nightmare of a 鈥榞ardener鈥櫬� killing just about everything in our garden, we sprayed the entire lawn with weed killer, as we鈥檇 just had enough, yet 2 years later the grass has regrown, albeit with some weeds too, but at least we do have a lawn again. When we first bought the property about 16 years ago the lawn was amazing, like a bowling green and I鈥檓 sure that if we could have spent more time here it still would have been. Now we鈥檙e retired we will be spending more time in Thailand as we always planned to so hopefully we can restore it to its former glory馃槃 If we do find anything that helps with the weeds we鈥檒l let you know馃憤馃徎
